It depends on what you expect from it: 2.7 _is_ usable, so you can use it if 
you like. We also appreciate bug reports and comments. However, it's not 
stable, which means that
- there's a greater risk of random errors
- people like Mats and Graham (and me) are less likely to help you if you run 
into problems.

So, it's up to you. If you need the new features, you can either use 2.7 and 
expect a lower degree of support, or you can wait for 2.8.
